Association between congenital Zika syndrome and hospitalizations during early childhood: a nationwide cohort study

Article

Author: Teixeira, Maria Gloria ; Paixão, Enny S ; Barreto, Mauricio L ; Tedde, João Guilherme G ; Costa, Maria da Conceição ; Silva, Thiago Cerqueira ; Cardim, Luciana ; Rodrigues, Laura ; Brickley, Elizabeth B

OBJECTIVES:

Congenital Zika Syndrome (CZS) has been linked to a wide spectrum of abnormalities. However, differences in hospitalization patterns between children with and without CZS have not yet been investigated.

METHODS:

We compared rates of hospital admissions for all and specific diseases, proportions of admission causes, and total length of hospital stay (LOS) between children with CZS and those without the syndrome. Adjusted incidence rate ratios (aIRR) and aLOS were estimated using negative binomial regression.

RESULTS:

Compared to those without CZS, the aIRR for all-cause hospitalizations in the CZS group ranged from 3.77 (95%CI: 3.47-4.06) in the neonatal period to 7.76 (95%CI: 6.91-8.61) at ages 2-4 years. Similar trends were observed for specific causes of admissions. Most admissions in the CZS group related to congenital malformations, neurological, respiratory and infectious diseases. aLOS ranged from 16.0 days [95%CI: 13.2-19.5] to 19.9 days among CZS patients and 6.0 days [95%CI: 5.9-6.2] to 9.3 days [95%CI: 9.3-9.4] for patients without the syndrome.

CONCLUSION:

Children born with CZS face significantly higher rates of hospitalization and longer stays compared to those without the syndrome during early childhood.

Implantation of impressive chromatographic and built-in UV spectrophotometry approaches for sustainable Estimation of olopatadine and mometasone in pharmaceuticals; eco-scale and BAGI applications

Article

Author: Emad F Abbas, Ahmed ; El-Masry, Amal A ; Elsabour, Samah A ; Salem, Yomna A

The development of analytical methods that adhere to the principles of sustainable green chemistry is essential in the modern scientific arena. This research presents two novel methods for the concurrent quantification of olopatadine (OLO) and mometasone (MOM), targeting sustainable green chemistry principles in their raw materials, dosage forms and combined nasal spray formulations. The first method is a rapid isocratic high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) that achieves excellent resolution within 4 min, with retention times of 2.37 ± 0.1 min for OLO and 4.05 ± 0.1 min for MOM. It features optimal sensitivity, with detection limits of 0.13 µg/mL for OLO and 0.03 µg/mL for MOM. It utilizes a cyano column with an isocratic mobile phase of acetonitrile and 0.1 M OPA (50: 50, v/v), making it accessible to standard laboratory equipment. The second method is UV-visible spectrophotometry, which includes first-order derivative measurement (D1) and ratio derivative spectra (RDS) methods. These spectroscopic approaches provide linear response range of 0.2-20.0 µg/mL for OLO and 4.0-40.0 µg/mL for MOM, respectively serving as cost-effective alternatives for labs with limited resources. Validation results show high accuracy (98-102 %) and precision (RSD < 2 %). Green assessments using Eco-Scale indicate scores of 86 for HPLC and 100 for spectrophotometry, while the "blueness" concept via BAGI demonstrates strong sustainability with scores of 87.5 and 90. These methods effectively quantify OLO and MOM in their raw materials, different formulations and combined nasal spray, providing a sustainable and reliable approach for pharmaceutical analysis. This work is the first green assessment for the determination of OLO and MOM in pure drug and in the pharmaceutical formulations using less hazard solvent and simple technique.

Inherent risks of Investment in Biotechnology Companies There are a number of inherent risks associated with the development of pharmaceutical products to a marketable stage. The lengthy clinical trial process is designed to assess the safety and efficacy of a drug prior to commercialization and a significant proportion of drugs fail one or both of these criteria. Other risks include uncertainty of patent protection and proprietary rights, whether patent applications and issued patents will offer adequate protection to enable product development, the obtaining of necessary drug regulatory authority approvals and difficulties caused by the rapid advancements in technology. Companies such as Opthea are dependent on the success of their research and development projects and on the ability to attract funding to support these activities. Investment in research and development projects cannot be assessed on the same fundamentals as trading and manufacturing enterprises. Therefore, investment in companies specializing in drug development must be regarded as highly speculative. Opthea strongly recommends that professional investment advice be sought prior to such investments.

Deciphering H1 receptor antagonists and Keeping Up with Their Recent Developments

The H1 receptor, also known as the histamine H1 receptor, plays a crucial role in the human body. It is primarily found in smooth muscle cells, endothelial cells, and nerve cells. Activation of the H1 receptor by histamine leads to various physiological responses, including vasodilation, increased vascular permeability, bronchoconstriction, and stimulation of sensory nerve endings. These responses are involved in allergic reactions, inflammation, and immune responses. Antagonists of the H1 receptor, commonly known as antihistamines, are widely used to treat allergies, hay fever, and other conditions associated with excessive histamine release. Understanding the role of the H1 receptor is essential for developing effective treatments for allergic and inflammatory disorders. The analysis of the target H1 receptor reveals a competitive landscape with multiple companies actively developing drugs. GSK Plc, Sanofi, Pfizer Inc., Bayer AG, and Novartis AG are among the companies with the highest number of approved drugs or drugs in advanced stages of development. The indications with the most approved drugs include Common Cold, Rhinitis, Allergic, Urticaria, Pruritus, and Hypersensitivity. Small molecule drugs are the most rapidly progressing drug type, indicating intense competition in this area. China, the United States, and Japan are the countries with the highest number of approved drugs, with China showing significant progress in the development of drugs targeting the H1 receptor. Overall, the target H1 receptor presents opportunities for further research and development, particularly in indications with high unmet medical needs. How do they work?H1 receptor antagonists, also known as H1 blockers or antihistamines, are a class of drugs that block the action of histamine at the H1 receptor. Histamine is a chemical released by the body during an allergic reaction, causing symptoms such as itching, sneezing, runny nose, and watery eyes. H1 receptor antagonists work by binding to the H1 receptors on cells, preventing histamine from binding and exerting its effects. From a biomedical perspective, H1 receptor antagonists are commonly used to treat allergic conditions, such as hay fever (allergic rhinitis), hives (urticaria), and allergic conjunctivitis. They help alleviate symptoms by reducing the effects of histamine, thereby relieving itching, sneezing, and other allergic reactions. There are different generations of H1 receptor antagonists, each with varying degrees of sedative effects. First-generation antihistamines, such as diphenhydramine and chlorpheniramine, can cause drowsiness and are often used for their sedative properties in addition to their antihistamine effects. Second-generation antihistamines, such as cetirizine, loratadine, and fexofenadine, are less likely to cause sedation and are preferred for daytime use. In summary, H1 receptor antagonists are drugs that block the action of histamine at the H1 receptor, providing relief from allergic symptoms. They are commonly used in the treatment of various allergic conditions and come in different generations with varying sedative effects. List of H1 receptor AntagonistsThe currently marketed H1 receptor antagonists include: Olopatadine Hydrochloride/Mometasone Furoate MonohydrateChlorpheniramine Maleate/Codeine PhosphateDiphenhydramine Hydrochloride/Naproxen SodiumRecombinant interferon alfa-2b/LoratadineRupatadine FumarateAzelastine/mometasoneEbastine/Pseudoephedrine HydrochlorideAzelastine Hydrochloride/Fluticasone PropionateChlorpheniramine Maleate/Hydrocodone Bitartrate/Pseudoephedrine HydrochlorideAlcaftadineFor more information, please click on the image below.
